Cristian Chironi is a multidisciplinary artist who lives between Mexico City and Italy. He uses uses different languages creating a sort of interaction between them and always trying to involve the context, be it human (public) or environmental (space). He currently lives and works in the homes of great architects scattered around the world on a multi-disciplinary itinerary, dedicated to the “Art of Living”. He travels aboard a FIAT 127 Special, renamed Chameleon for its ability to change colour.
